Nobu Monte Carlo will welcome its founder, chef Nobu Matsuhisa, for two special evenings on 28th and 29th May as part of a culinary programme at the Fairmont Monte Carlo.

The visit marks a rare appearance by the internationally recognised chef, who will be in Monaco to oversee and host two events at the restaurant bearing his name. Nobu, known for blending Japanese culinary traditions with Peruvian influences, has maintained a presence in the Principality for over a decade.

The first event, on Wednesday 28th May, will be held at the Nobu Lounge and features a cocktail-style dinner with live cooking stations, sushi, and a variety of dishes prepared in the presence of the chef. The evening begins at 7pm and includes Champagne Perrier-Jouët. Tickets are priced at €120 per person.

On Thursday 29th May, the second evening will feature a six-course Omakase menu, a format that allows the chef to curate a tasting experience based on seasonal ingredients and Nobu’s signature style. Guests will have the option to pair the menu with a Champagne selection. The dinner is available from 6:30pm to 11pm, priced at €150 per person, or €195 with Champagne pairing.

Both events will take place at the Nobu Monte Carlo, which reopened in 2024 following renovations at the Fairmont Monte Carlo.
